Research focuses on exploring the physical processes
of large earthquakes with various modern geophysical observations,
such as broadband seismograms, high-rate GPS, and radar interferometry.
Current research interests:
-
Developing real-time finite fault inversion systems
to quickly evaluate the catastrophic tragedies caused by
large shallow earthquakes in regional and teleseismic distances.
-
Globally surveying the seismic nucleation phases of great earthquakes
-
Analyzing the uncertainties associated with the source models
of large earthquakes
-
Capturing the "early" post-seismic deformation following
the large earthquakes by joint inverting the
seismic and geodetic data
Model III of the Mar 11, 2011 Mw 9.1 Honshu Earthquake
A maximum slip of almost 50 meters (165 feet)
occurred on the fault accompanying the Japan earthquake.
